I absolutely love the Christmas season, but I do feel like the ads started a tad early this year.

Still, I like seeing them.

[Loukas]

Yeah they are so annoying tbh, they only make me feel christmassy a couple weeks before christmas. It is currently 45 days till christmas.. it's a bit ridiculous.

I heard santa claus is coming to town the other day in a shop

I was in Debenhams the day before Halloween and they were all decorated up for Christmas.

An excellent point. The run up to Christmas is a very, very important part of the festivity, but this over-comercialisation actually ruins that run up. By the time Christmas actually arrives, we've had nearly 3 months of carols and trees and films and decorations.

It's like hearing a pop song we like played over and over again until we are peed off with hearing it.

they've also started putting christmas lights up all over the place, saw a fake snow machine in central london a couple days ago.

You have normally watched National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation about five times by now so I don't know how you can talk

Completely agree!

I received my first Christmas card last night......i mean...c'mon

I also had to buy a bag to put my shopping in on Monday, and it was a big Christmas one i asked if they had ordinary ones but they didn't so i was forced to walk through the town centre with a Christmas bag

I've watched a Christmas movie already. I might watch another one this weekend. It's not ridiculous it's just other people like doing things differently to you. I like getting prepared early, I don't think that should affect you.

Ashley what you do doesn't affect nor interest me in anyway and since I was replying to Matt who was directly talking about me then not sure how you would think I was talking about anyone else anyway.

You weren't talking about anyone. You are stating that it's ridiculous to be excited for Christmas in November. I disagree with you; insert discussion.

...name and shame that shop though Ruby, which only has Christmas bags as an option...

[Daniel-X]

It starts to feel a bit like Christmas for me when IAC starts which is next Sunday. I always feel it's around the corner then. I agree Christmas adverts shouldn't really be on till around mid-late November at the earliest

[Cherie]

Not sure they earlier than other years, there are definitely more of them

[Daniel-X]

I saw a house with Xmas decorations outside it on Bonfire night on the way home from Manchester

[Ashley.]

Nothing wrong with it IMO, it's just like a normal advert it's just got snow in the background or something

[smudgie]

I don't mind them.
Just think a few of them are rubbish so far.
Lidl one is crap, Aldi one is okay..

..I guess that it's a bit like the sales all starting earlier and many offers before Christmas, they're all competing for trade, so getting their ads in early and having them shown a lot is important to them...

sky's Christmas movie channel is up and running now so you can watch Christmas movies 24/7 Josy

(i get in to the Christmas spirit when I'm on my 4th pint on Christmas Eve )

[jennyjuniper]

I love it all. The ads, the songs. It gets me in a Christmassy mood and so what if it's still six weeks away.
